The most recent insolvency notice for Skygem Acquisition Limited is an Appointment of liquidators (MVL), published 10 July 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holders are Edward Robert Bines; Benjamin John Wiles, appointed 2 July 2026. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 December 2024, showed total assets of £54.5m and net assets of -£193k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 18 months before its first insolvency notice. A members' voluntary liquidation (MVL) is the solvent, orderly winding-up of a company that can pay its debts in full — usually part of a director's retirement, a group restructure, or closing a company that has served its purpose. It is a planned closure, not a sign of financial distress.
